The nature of friction and wear of ceramic material and ceramic hip endoprostheses by different manufacturers has been investigated by means of model test equipment and gait-simulators. Thus the aptitude of ceramics to be frictional partners for artificial joints can be attested, the results give the hope of a long usability. Anyway there is the demand to the manufacturers to give a garantee for the breaking strength of the cone--plug-in-connexion and a highest productional quality of the sliding faces. The long-term testings are carried on.
通过模型测试设备和步态模拟器，对不同制造商生产的陶瓷材料及陶瓷髋关节假体的摩擦与磨损特性进行了研究。由此可以证明陶瓷作为人工关节摩擦副的适用性，研究结果让人看到其具备长期使用的可能性。无论如何，都要求制造商对锥塞式连接的断裂强度以及滑动面的最高生产质量提供保证。长期测试正在进行中。
